    A simple harmonic oscillator has amplitude A, angular velocity \[\Omega \], and mass m. Then, average                 energy in one time period will be :

    A)                 \[\frac{1}{4}m{{\omega }^{2}}{{A}^{2}}\]                             

    B)  \[\frac{1}{4}{{m}^{2}}{{\omega }^{2}}{{A}^{2}}\]

    C)                  \[{{\omega }^{2}}{{A}^{2}}\]                                     

    D)  zero

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    Average energy \[=\frac{\int_{0}^{T}{Udt}}{\int_{0}^{T}{dt}}=\frac{1}{T}\int_{0}^{T}{Udt}\] \[=\frac{1}{2T}\int_{0}^{T}{m{{\omega }^{2}}{{A}^{2}}\,{{\cos }^{2}}\,(\omega t+\phi )dt}\] \[=\frac{1}{4}m{{\omega }^{2}}{{A}^{2}}\]
